>To all AUGDU friends. There is a dog flu going around in Chicago. It is
head this way.
If your dog is elderly, plays in dog parks and exposed to other dogs, You
must get the
new flu shot. I suggest that we all do this if necessary. I understand
there are two
shots in this procedure.








 I encourage all to sign this if you haven’t done so already.

>> Dear Fellow Federationists:
>>
>> As you know, the National Federation of the Blind has been warning for
>> many
>> years that hybrid and electric vehicles pose a danger to the blind and
>> to
>> other pedestrians, as well as to cyclists and small children. In the
>> United
>> States our campaign to have a safe level of sound added to these
>> vehicles
>> resulted in the passage of the Pedestrian safety Enhancement Act.
>> However,
>> there is still much work to be done on the international level, and so
>> we
>> have also been working with other individuals and organizations to
>> encourage
>> the United Nations to adopt an international standard for safe vehicle
>> sound. Some of our blind colleagues in the United Kingdom have posted a
>> petition on Change.org urging the UN to take action. We are writing to
>> ask
>> that you sign this petition to show our support for their request to the
>> UN.
>> You can read and sign the petition by clicking the following link or
>> pasting
>> it into your browser:
